I'm vegetarian! But I live in America, and a typical meal for me consists of some form of vegetable, some form of dairy (I'm not vegan. Lol), and anything with protein to replace the meat!
i think that sounds about right for typical american meal…meat as the main and carbs not too far behind if not more, and a forced salad upon ourselves lol and a yummier cooked veg
Because North America has so many different people and the size of it seperates it into regions that eat different foods it is very difficult to say that there is any traditional meal plan for all of North America. I think you are correct in saying that many households have a main dish, a lot of times consisting of meat although there are many vegetarians so not always. A starch or carb dish and one or two vegetable dishes. My husband is from Georgia he likes to have bread with each meal also.
Your japanese is fantastic, mate! I'm trying to learn it myself. Anddd you're cute! In America, I'd say that we have a central meat dish, a salad or veggies, and a pasta dish or bread. I might make a video response to this. *favorited*
I'm surprised you didn't list breakfast in this video as it pretty standard across North America. Eggs(scrambled, over easy etc), Bacon/Ham/Sausage, Hash Browns and Toast. You could probably add pancakes/waffles to the list as well.
I'm not sure but I don't think they eat that for breakfast in Japan do they? I think it's a North American thing.
@MANABUR Therese other as well like New England/Manhatten clam chowder, Hot Dogs and whisky. America is always modern? I guess the native Americans that lived in north America for thousands of years to count rite?
@MANABUR Explain what you mean by traditional? I thought we were talking about food here. Sure Japanese food is Japanese food. But America does have it's own style of Cuisine. For example cajun and creole food. There is also food in America you can't get anywhere else like craw fish, Sockeye Salmon, Bison and Maine lobster to name a few. Just because a country is hundreds of years old and not thousands doesn't mean they don't have there own cuisine,
@CapChronic o.K you explain what you mean by traditional !! Look at America !! everything in USA is modern !! but look at Japan and other Asian countries ! i believe that traditional means something that has not change for a long time !! see ! point is not to change for long time !!! or older methods and ideas rather than modern !! . so something America is modern ! not Traditional !!
@MANABUR You might want to look up what modern means in the dictionary, Because last I heard modern means present or recently. If you don't know what present or recently means you might want to look that up in the dictionary as well. Because it is 2010 I don't know if you noticed. So America has always been modern? it doesn't make sense. In your point of view AMERICA has always been been in the present? I guess I could say England has always been modern!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@CapChronic o.k you think Americas are older than Japan or other Asian countries ?? Do not think so !!! that's simple answer !! so Americans are always modern and Japan or other Asian countries are always traditional !! you might look up which country is older !!
@MANABUR Also Americans do have there own traditions for example thanksgiving do you even know when that TRADITION started?! Traditional/tradition also means something that was handed down so a recipe like Chili that started in the late 1800's in texas was obviously handed down so I would say that chili was traditional food of America. Traditional does not mean "something that has not changed in a long time".
@MANABUR "That's has not changed for a long time"? Whats a long time to you, 10 years? 30 years? 50 years? 100 years? 250 years+? Well something like cajun cooking which started in North America 50-100 years ago. I would say that it is traditional Southern American food. Saying Americans are always modern and Asian country's are always traditional doesn't make sense. I actually don't even know what your trying to say anymore because your English is so poor (mine isn't great by any means).
@MANABUR America has some traditional foods, but you're right, our history as a country is not as long as Japan or other older countries. Also, because America is made up of people from so many different cultures, many of our 伝統的な are kind of collaborations with other countries/cultures. Like Chili, which came from the combination of Texas style cooking and Mexican cooking. It's not 100% American, or Mexican. So when someone asks me what is "American food" I never know what to say!
@CapChronic "Traditional does not mean something that has not changed in a long time". What I meant to say was it doesn't need to be 100's of years old. Like what MANABUR is implying. It can be 5 years old or less. IE. I could start a new tradition this year by adding a new christmas ornament to my christmas tree starting this year and ever year after that. MANABUR is implying America has no traditional food because it is not as old as japan. I think so anyway I can't tell. English is bad.
@CapChronic Tradition can be personal. But for something to be a NATIONAL tradition, I think it takes a little longer than 5 years. Of course, there are "traditional American foods;" our breakfast style IS a great example. But it's usually hard to identify a food as "traditionally American" because we're made up of so many imported traditions.
And MANABUR is right, he was disagreeing with you but not attacking you. You shouldn't assume someone's English level makes them stupid.
@CapChronic plus I did not ask you !! it's no of your business !! I asked the person who created this page !!so go away ! also before watching youtube , find jobs , get heath insuranace and owe bad dedts loser !!

@MANABUR What all this bullcrap about getting health insurance, a job and did own dedts(what the hell is that) I stand by my post stating you were a moron.
@CapChronic you did not know about own your country ?? you are a moron !! ask your pussy mother and she will answer you oops even your mother dose not know that !! anway use japanese !!! oops you do not know any other language poor boy !! you are abviously moron !!! plus loser !! japan bought many dedit natinal security !! people in USA have many bad dedts !! hahaha loser Toyto and many japanese compaies employ Americans !! should be thank for Japan !! anyway you loser !! use japanese !!

Hi.Mr.ボビー柔道!Is this really typical American dish? I think ur home dishes look so nice and healthy than typical American dish which I know.Vegetables are organic cultivation?BTW Do u know "S 510 Food Safety bill" called one of the most dangerous bills? watch?v=gOups0dfdwM Why the Federal Gov is going to make such a crazy bill?
P.S. Oyster is one of the most my favorite seafood. What bout u? Well, Washington is famous for producing oyster, so do you know what kind of oyster is delicious? Kumamoto?
My family loves soup and my mom often makes chicken noodle soup(her version) she puts in actual pieces of shredded chicken, cut up potatoes, cut up carrots, a bit of garlic for flavour, and broccoli, and then if we want we can add some noodles to it. It is very delicious!
I think the great thing about being a cook in Oz is that original Oz cuisine (ie English-based stodge based on one meat, or a meat pie, and three veg) is rapidly dying out. In less than 30 years, there has been a Food Revolution here. Restaurants representing foods from almost all the globe are here, and most people are willing to try a fair range of them. Even country towns thesedays have an OK range of food. メリークリスマス。 ２０１１年もどうぞよろしくお願いします。
I think in America, we have so many cultures and choices available to us, we have the opportunity to decide what we want. All of these choices tends to move us away from a specific traditions. The most uniform and traditional meals seem take place on holidays (i.e. Thanksgiving - i.e Turkey, Stuffing, etc) and special occasions as far as the whole country goes. Still from family to family dinners over all vary.
In my family, when I was growing up the meal was always meat, starch, two vegetables, and bread. It depended on the dish because sometimes, we just had chili (meat, veggies, beans) and cornbread. Other times, we would have salad and a pasta dish. What food we had to eat depended on availability, money, and mood.
Awesome! I can't wait to see how to make those meatballs, they look amazing. (The ending song is fantastic btw). Great video! :)
I think my typical Christmas family meal is the exact same as Thanksgiving. It's usually Ham, potatoes, macaroni and cheese, various casseroles that involve vegetables, tea, and Christmas pies and cakes.
It's true, America is such a melting pot of different cultures that there is no 1 "typical" way of doing anything. There's a PA dutch culture around where I live, so it's very simple meat & potatoes, bacon & eggs type stuff. People put gravy & ketchup on everything around here. I couldn't be more different though. That's too unimaginative & bland for me. There's not much I won't eat, it depends on my mood, but I love seafood & Thai especially... and Caesar salads.
I personally love the idea of a good casserole. I thought maybe it was an American invention, but it turns out it has French origins. Still, America was the one to co-opt it into the modern casserole.
It sounds kinda weird, but in a way, okonomiyaki is waaaay more like an American casserole than it is pizza, or pancakes, or whatever the hell they like to call it. It's a one-stop meal without side-dishes that has your meat, veggies and carbs all slammed together and cooked simultaneously.
well im from america and my family's food choices are influenced by our various ethnic culture mix. there are several different ethnic mixtures in my family which center around Cuban and classic american style foods.
@LDNLeon Basically, "de" means "at" in this case. It has a couple of other particle uses as well, but here it indicates a place where an action occurs. "ie" means house.
Hmn.. The only thing that i can say that we do eat that is ..."typical" of the "american family" would be breakfast. Right? Though there are many different cultures in America, I would say the vast majority of us have pretty much the same things for breakfast. ... But as far as dinner goes, yes it varies for my household. Sometimes I want to cook something, sometimes I dont. But for say, Xmas or Thanksgiving, I cook the same thing every year.
As the only vegetarian in my house... I cook for myself on the side of my parents meal... its usually pretty simple and consists of beans or tofu... but my dad is cajun so when he makes things like jambalaya and etouffee he scoops me a bowl before he adds in suasage
Where I’m from (witch is Newfoundland Canada) we have the traditional dinner called Jiggs Dinner (funny name lol)
We have as our main dish to be turkey and the other main ingredients would be salt beef (or salt riblets), boiled potatoes, carrots, cabbage, turnip, turnip greens, bread pudding, dressing, and pease pudding. And our condiments would usually be mustard pickles, pickled beets, and cranberry sauce. We usually have this for every Sunday, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter :)
answering your question, i grew up eating whatever the hell my maid grew up eating herself or knew how to cook.lol..before u guys jump to conclusions, let me tell you.maids are pretty common in middle class families in india.& since our maid came from a far part of the country,she lived with us and i don't remember ever eating anything my parents ever made. since my maid was bhutanese raised in india, we ate a bhutanese slash indian mix of food..rice, indian bread, lentil, indian curry& veggies
In Australia it is usually a piece of meat with three vegetables (one being potato) as the standard fare. But I like to have things that are more culturally inspired.
My typical meal is very similar to yours: meat, starch/carbs, vegetables (either cooked or a salad)... Japanese people must be frightened by how much "heavy" food we eat! XD
That pretty much nails it for the normal American model of food. If you are vegetarian, you sub out the meat with tofu, beans, some other protein. Vegans then you add in extra veg. and starch for the most part. My only difference is that we often try to sneak some fruit in for sugar purposes, even if its just some lemon to garnish. Just anything to try and balance with a little natural sugar.
For when we make dinner from scratch its typically a meat, like chicken or pork as beef is a bit expensive, mixed veggies like carrots others, perhaps mashed potatoes or sweet potatoes and then my sister always has milk, while I have juice or tea with dinner.
My mom is a Personal Trainer so we are always eating healthy, a typical meal in my house would be some kind of meat usually Fish my least favorite, a Baked Potato, and some other side dish usually either pasta or some kind of vegetable.
Well, I guess if I'm dissecting meals for my family here in Canada, they're about the same as you indicated: meat, carb, vegetables and bread. My Parents used to host a Xmas Eve party in which their meal of choice was beef & breadcrumb meatballs, in a sweet & sour sauce, served over rice, with a pasta salad light in pasta shells and tuna, and heavy in celery, green onion and radish. Of course Xmas dinner was turkey, potatoes, stuffing, corn, carrots, sometimes turnip, and bread.
What is your IQ? About 80? lol. You studied japanese for such a long time already and have the chance to talk to native speakers and your japanese is still that bad. Your accent makes me wanna puke, lol.
@M4rsu And yet, where are your vlogs? Do YOU live in Japan? Where are YOUR fans? Why do you even bother writing comments like this, do you think calling other people stupid will somehow make you look smarter? どうみてもお前はばかにしか見えないだよ。なんだか可哀想なー.
@Ciaela Hehe. I'm sorry, but the fact that I have better things to do in my spare time than creating "vlogs" for a couple of fourteen year old anime fangirls will not prevent me from stating facts: Your videos are proof of a lack of intelligence - and in lousy japanese, to make it even worse. It looks like you did not quite understand the sense of a platform like this one - nor the idea behind freedom of speech itself. Now go and learn some Kanji, baby.
For those of you interested, according to his page, M4rsu is a second year Japanese student. Looks like he can string together a few basic sentences.
I wouldn't actually have gone to the trouble of blocking him had he not been mean to Mic, because his kind of troll doesn't actually bother me. The trolls that do bug me are the ones that actually have some substance to their comments and know what they're talking about. This dude has nothing.
@bobbyjudo Hahaha, in the end, comments like his really only help boost the stats of the videos. The higher the comment count, the higher the honors. Fighting with trolls (who reply) is a good strategy for shooting videos higher up in the "Most Discussed" rankings. So really, we should be thanking him. Merry Christmas to everyone!
I'm from Indonesia and from where I came from the usual pattern meal is :
Rice/Noodles + Oily/Fried/Curry/Peanut-sauced main dish (usually chicken, goat, or fish) + Sauteed Vegetables + Spicy oily chilli sauce + Chips (chips will always be there whatever the meal is)
Hmm.. *looks above* and we wonder why the people in our country have a poor health XD
@kahlua382 Funny, I read your comment and got really jealous. I would LOVE to eat that all the time. I'm gonna be headed there in February! Any advice on what to eat?
@bobbyjudo You'll be there in February? Cool! I hope you'll have fun :D
I recommend sate ayam (chicken satay), gado-gado or karedok (salad with peanut sauce), soto (kind of soup), fried gourami fish (you can find it in Sunda restaurants.. usually the name of the restaurants has 'kuring' in it, like sari kuring, rumah kuring, whatever kuring XD), and if you like curry or spicy food, Padang restaurants is a must :)
i had rice with almost every meal, milk, a vegatable like green beans or corn (bleh!), for the main food i had chicken, beef, or fish...mostly chicken....
I became a Vegan predominately. So I use lots of sauce. I am going to a store to reup on the sauces when we go to Columbus tomorrow for the Holy days. The store fortunately has a mix of all major asian foods. So I can stock up! Soy, Mirin, Bull Dog sauce, Oyster sauce. Hoisin, red and black been sauce., Ponzu, fish sauce. Sea salt, Fluer de Sal, Dal, tomato chutny, Tahini, Hummus, ect.
@bobbyjudo It comes in a tapered Square bottle about 8-8 inches tall with orange Chinese printing on the plastic bottle. A fruit based sauce with lots of soy and added spices. A variation on Tonkatsu sauce.
Bulldog sauce... I think he's refering to Tonkatsu or other type sauce. Bulldog is the brand. Youtube would allow the link so...put the h t t p:// in front of this2.bp.blogspot.com/_DXqwAeak1GA/R4_Iv7MtcCI/AAAAAAAAAoQ/hObGVZ7Y0D8/s320/bulldog-sauce.jpg
im little jealous of what seems to be such a nice upbring....dont get me wrong i know we all get our fair share of issues but `family dinners` where what i cooked. ne ways its all good now.... sorry to get all serious and shit! Happy Holidays Jude.
@BlkUnk Happy Holidays to you too. And yeah, every family's got their own ups and downs. It's real hard to compare and contrast, and in the end... kind of pointless.
Vegetable is always the main dish, with little to no meat. No pork or beef, will eat fish,chicken or Turkey. The way I started eating at 30 years old, may switch back to eating pork, and beef some day but no time soon.
@Nemesis093781 Thank you! We grew up with meat, so I always have this idea that making your main dish vegetables ALL the time is pretty challenging in terms of variety. Is it?
@bobbyjudo Not really challenging it is just the way I am used to eating. Just like some people are used to eating popcorn with a movie, I like steamed broccoli ( no cheese). I am a little odd that way.
I've grown up in an Afro-Caribbean so rice has always been a staple of my diet, but living in the UK means, like Americans, I have access to a variety of different foods and have incorporated them as such. Chinese is my favourite.
I'm currently going through a pasta phase; it's tasty, versatile and most importantly, easy to make. That combined with various red or white meats and salads - with a glass of apple juice or cream soda to wash it all down and some chocolate cake for desert.
@VidBrats Oh, thanks for checking out the blog as well! I'm always trying to do what I can to improve. Hope you had a nice Christmas, and thanks to "both" of you for the holiday wishes!
My dad is Indian. My mother is Italian. So we always had rice and some sort of curry. Meat, chicken, pork,vegetable,cocunut,beef,lentil,etc. curries galore. My dad also loved roti so we had rice and roti to choose from. On the odd days that my mom cooked (since my dad is a chef) we had pasta,meatloaf,typical western dishes. Have a good xmas and new year!
I seem to plan in terms of whatever cultural inspiration I have at the moment. I do a lot of fusion so I'll do Chinese char siu tacos or I'll have a Thai or Malaysian curry with wild meat and a green mango salad. Other than genmai or soba, I make my own pasta with spelt flour.
@forgottenmemories21 Yeah, that's something I should've mentioned. When we were kids we ate or ordered out once every couple of weeks. I think my parents do it more often, now that we're all gone! :)
Continued: For example, ordering Taco Bell every Wed. night. It use to be because they needed a quick meal before or after taking their daughter to dance class. However she hasn't done dance class in years and it has become tradition. Or at the end of the week, they just don't feel like having to make food so they just get pizza and wings on Sunday sometimes. Yet other times, my boyfriend's sister requests Chinese because it's one of her favorite meals.
I really think you did a good job explaining how us Americans typically plan our dinner but you also could talk about how sometimes people don't feel like cooking some nights and just order pizza and wings, Chinese, or go out for a cheeseburger and fries. For me, I don't usually don't because it's expensive and unhealthy. However, my boyfriend's family usually does that two days out of the week.
Where I'm from (Holland), I guess the typical components of a meal (and I'm talking about traditional meals, cause almost every supermarket can offer a variety of international products) are: Potatoes (mashed or whole, mostly boiled), some type of
cabbage (cauliflower, endive, kale), and some meat, most of the times in its own gravy. The meat could be a sausage or just a plain porkchop or something.
That's the best I can describe traditional meals in the Netherlands. :p

@MANABUR Also Americans do have there own traditions for example thanksgiving do you even know when that TRADITION started?!

Traditional does not mean "something that has not changed in a long time".

MANABUR 1 year ago
@MANABUR "That's has not changed for a long time"? Whats a long time to you, 10 years? 30 years? 50 years? 100 years? 250 years+? Well something like cajun cooking which started in North America 50-100 years ago. I would say that it is traditional Southern American food. Saying Americans are always modern and Asian country's are always traditional doesn't make sense. I actually don't even know what your trying to say anymore because your English is so poor (mine isn't great by any means).
CapChronic 1 year ago
@MANABUR America has some traditional foods, but you're right, our history as a country is not as long as Japan or other older countries. Also, because America is made up of people from so many different cultures, many of our 伝統的な are kind of collaborations with other countries/cultures. Like Chili, which came from the combination of Texas style cooking and Mexican cooking. It's not 100% American, or Mexican. So when someone asks me what is "American food" I never know what to say!

@CapChronic "Traditional does not mean something that has not changed in a long time". What I meant to say was it doesn't need to be 100's of years old. Like what MANABUR is implying. It can be 5 years old or less. IE. I could start a new tradition this year by adding a new christmas ornament to my christmas tree starting this year and ever year after that. MANABUR is implying America has no traditional food because it is not as old as japan. I think so anyway I can't tell. English is bad.

@CapChronic Tradition can be personal. But for something to be a NATIONAL tradition, I think it takes a little longer than 5 years. Of course, there are "traditional American foods;" our breakfast style IS a great example. But it's usually hard to identify a food as "traditionally American" because we're made up of so many imported traditions.
And MANABUR is right, he was disagreeing with you but not attacking you. You shouldn't assume someone's English level makes them stupid.

アメリカの食事といえば朝食はベーコンに目玉焼きかスクランブルエッグを付けてポテトサラダとシリアルとオレンジジュース、昼食はハムにホースラディッシュを塗ったサンドウィッチかハンバーガーにピザにフライドポテトで、夜は甘ったるいオレンジソースをかけた牛肉か鴨肉にポテトサラダと野菜の缶詰のビーンズとコーンを添えて、それを全て一皿に盛り付けるという見た目は最悪だけどアメリカ人らしい合理的な食事じゃないの？

I think the great thing about being a cook in Oz is that original Oz cuisine (ie English-based stodge based on one meat, or a meat pie, and three veg) is rapidly dying out. In less than 30 years, there has been a Food Revolution here. Restaurants representing foods from almost all the globe are here, and most people are willing to try a fair range of them. Even country towns thesedays have an OK range of food. メリークリスマス。 ２０１１年もどうぞよろしくお願いします。

I think in America, we have so many cultures and choices available to us, we have the opportunity to decide what we want. All of these choices tends to move us away from a specific traditions. The most uniform and traditional meals seem take place on holidays (i.e. Thanksgiving - i.e Turkey, Stuffing, etc) and special occasions as far as the whole country goes. Still from family to family dinners over all vary.
punkonthis 1 year ago
In my family, when I was growing up the meal was always meat, starch, two vegetables, and bread. It depended on the dish because sometimes, we just had chili (meat, veggies, beans) and cornbread. Other times, we would have salad and a pasta dish. What food we had to eat depended on availability, money, and mood.

It's true, America is such a melting pot of different cultures that there is no 1 "typical" way of doing anything. There's a PA dutch culture around where I live, so it's very simple meat & potatoes, bacon & eggs type stuff. People put gravy & ketchup on everything around here. I couldn't be more different though. That's too unimaginative & bland for me. There's not much I won't eat, it depends on my mood, but I love seafood & Thai especially... and Caesar salads.

I personally love the idea of a good casserole. I thought maybe it was an American invention, but it turns out it has French origins. Still, America was the one to co-opt it into the modern casserole.
It sounds kinda weird, but in a way, okonomiyaki is waaaay more like an American casserole than it is pizza, or pancakes, or whatever the hell they like to call it. It's a one-stop meal without side-dishes that has your meat, veggies and carbs all slammed together and cooked simultaneously.

Hmn.. The only thing that i can say that we do eat that is ..."typical" of the "american family" would be breakfast. Right? Though there are many different cultures in America, I would say the vast majority of us have pretty much the same things for breakfast. ... But as far as dinner goes, yes it varies for my household. Sometimes I want to cook something, sometimes I dont. But for say, Xmas or Thanksgiving, I cook the same thing every year.

Where I’m from (witch is Newfoundland Canada) we have the traditional dinner called Jiggs Dinner (funny name lol)
We have as our main dish to be turkey and the other main ingredients would be salt beef (or salt riblets), boiled potatoes, carrots, cabbage, turnip, turnip greens, bread pudding, dressing, and pease pudding. And our condiments would usually be mustard pickles, pickled beets, and cranberry sauce. We usually have this for every Sunday, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter :)

That pretty much nails it for the normal American model of food. If you are vegetarian, you sub out the meat with tofu, beans, some other protein. Vegans then you add in extra veg. and starch for the most part. My only difference is that we often try to sneak some fruit in for sugar purposes, even if its just some lemon to garnish. Just anything to try and balance with a little natural sugar.

Well, I guess if I'm dissecting meals for my family here in Canada, they're about the same as you indicated: meat, carb, vegetables and bread. My Parents used to host a Xmas Eve party in which their meal of choice was beef & breadcrumb meatballs, in a sweet & sour sauce, served over rice, with a pasta salad light in pasta shells and tuna, and heavy in celery, green onion and radish. Of course Xmas dinner was turkey, potatoes, stuffing, corn, carrots, sometimes turnip, and bread.

I've grown up in an Afro-Caribbean so rice has always been a staple of my diet, but living in the UK means, like Americans, I have access to a variety of different foods and have incorporated them as such. Chinese is my favourite.
I'm currently going through a pasta phase; it's tasty, versatile and most importantly, easy to make. That combined with various red or white meats and salads - with a glass of apple juice or cream soda to wash it all down and some chocolate cake for desert.

Continued: For example, ordering Taco Bell every Wed. night. It use to be because they needed a quick meal before or after taking their daughter to dance class. However she hasn't done dance class in years and it has become tradition. Or at the end of the week, they just don't feel like having to make food so they just get pizza and wings on Sunday sometimes. Yet other times, my boyfriend's sister requests Chinese because it's one of her favorite meals.
forgottenmemories21 1 year ago
I really think you did a good job explaining how us Americans typically plan our dinner but you also could talk about how sometimes people don't feel like cooking some nights and just order pizza and wings, Chinese, or go out for a cheeseburger and fries. For me, I don't usually don't because it's expensive and unhealthy. However, my boyfriend's family usually does that two days out of the week.
forgottenmemories21 1 year ago
Where I'm from (Holland), I guess the typical components of a meal (and I'm talking about traditional meals, cause almost every supermarket can offer a variety of international products) are: Potatoes (mashed or whole, mostly boiled), some type of
cabbage (cauliflower, endive, kale), and some meat, most of the times in its own gravy. The meat could be a sausage or just a plain porkchop or something.
That's the best I can describe traditional meals in the Netherlands. :p
